Match Report |
THE OPPORTUNISM OF DUNCAN
Scotland beat England at
Hampden Park, Glasgow, on Saturday before the Duke of York and a crowd
of 129,693 people by two goals to none, and as a result the two
countries are bracketed together at the head of the International
table...
Scotland's goal came two
minutes before the interval. Walker forced a corner--Scotland's
first--Napier took it, and there was an infinitesimal hesitation in the
goal-mouth of which Duncan, coming up from nowhere, took full advantage.
He got his head to the ball and Hibbs never had a chance...
...Actually Scotland only got
one goal, four minutes from the restart. Napier took a corner-kick and
Hibbs pushed the ball round the post ; another corner. Again Napier took
it, and the ball swung into the goal-mouth, where Duncan's head helped
it into the net. Intelligent anticipation--one of the most precious
attributes in all ball games.

Source Notes |
According to the
grandson of Cambridge University's
Harry Rose,
his grandfather was a reserve for this match. There is no contemporary
evidence to support this. But we have made a note, regardless.
